ruby's influence over the elixir language - ruby day 2014
DESCRIPTION
This is my presentation of Elixir at Ruby Day 2014 in Roncade, Italy on September 26 2014. Elixir is a functional language that runs over the Erlang virtual machine. Despite being Erlang inside, Elixir has a Ruby-like syntax, with do...end blocks and many intentional name collisions with Ruby's keywords and library methods. This makes it easier for Rubysts to pick it up than most other functional languages with arcane syntaxes. The talk will present elements of the Elixir language. We'll also look at the Phoenix web framework and how it was influenced by Ruby on Rails. It's worth reading the speaker notes. They are in the original files at http://connettiva.eu/rubyday plus some tutorials and a link to a Phoenix project on my GitHub page.
